Too bad we didn't get it in the movie War Buster

The only issue I have with the LEGO Avengers: Endgame sets is that they weren't in the movie. They're all inspired by the Avengers but don't really fit the story. And that's just bad for Endgame. It would be great to see War Destroyer in a movie. In this set we get a massive War Destroyer, War Machine, Ant-Man and two Outriders. War Machine and Ant-Man both wear their white suits that we see on all Avengers in the line. A lot of people are unhappy that we keep getting the same body and that LEGO made it easy on itself. The fact is that these are unique numbers. Not long ago we had a new Ant-Man. So we're either copying these characters from the latest version that we just saw, or we're going to take the white suit versions. I'd rather have the whole team in white suits. The other two characters are the Outriders. We have been getting pioneers for a long time with a large number of sets. Considering how much we're seeing in Infinity War and Endgame, these are very massive numbers. The more the better. This time we get them in two versions. One of the six-armed variants with four arms behind the back and one with shoulder spikes. Both versions look great, which is good for a mass army variant. If you want to place War Machine in War Buster, detach his shoulder pistol and the one he's holding and they can fit outside. the Warbreaker's arm. The War Machine fits in the cockpit with the shoulder mount installed. Nice gesture. The pieces fit it well and cover it almost completely. The armor has two weapons with working arrows. There is a six spike shooter that fires when the mechanism on the back spins. Others are classic manipulator missiles. With the addition of War Machine's shooters, there are also two additional shooters. All stud shooters give you a 2x2 square hiding behind the war machine which has another 8 studs ready to be loaded and fired again. This build is based on the Hulkbuster armor released for Infinity War. They are similar in design, but War Buster appears to have some additional upgrades showing an improvement over the previously released Hulkbuster. They definitely feel like they were created by the same designer. The only downside for me is that they didn't give War Buster elbows. He has very good articulation in everything, but he can't move his elbows. It is not an obstacle to a good figure. This is a great set for fans of LEGO Marvel sets. War Buster is a great companion for Hulkbuster. The new characters pair well with the white suits, and you get a few more Outriders to fight with.
